Get yourself a  TF-97 springer in .22 cal!!! The trigger is "rough", but the barrels are pretty dang good. You may have to adjust the rear iron sight a good ways, but once you get her set,...you'll appreciate the sub $100 investment. After you learn how to shoot it,...then get a Gamo/Crosman and add the GRT-III trigger and you'll think your're in "Air-Gun" heaven. A Quest 800 (.22 cal) can be bought for around 100 bucks and they're easy to lube tune for a DIY'er. And that will make a world of difference!!!!!! Good Luck, tjk

I guess right now I am at the b26, the tf89, and the 2100 or 1377.

The Remington Airmaster 77 is a Crosman 2100 that looks different. Mine is a great shooter. The problem with the Airmaster is that it only comes with a cheapo scope. I put a Leapers 4x32 airgun scope with AO on it, and it makes a fine setup. The 2100 can be bought with the same scope, or with no scope. Interestingly, my Remington (made by Crosman) doesn't like Crosman pellets very much, as they seem to be a very loose fit into the breech. But the gun likes so many other pellets that it is easy to come up with winners. RWS Hobbys, Diablo Basics, Super H Points, Gamo Match wadcutters, Gamo Hunters, Beeman Laser Sports, Silver Bears all do very well in my gun.
